How this service works

Example use cases
Competitor product sentiment check
“Can you pull the latest HackerNews sentiment for 'Vercel' — I want to know how developers are feeling about it and how fast discussions are moving compared to a few days ago.”
AI model launch buzz analysis
“We just launched a new AI model called 'Zephyr-7B' — can you check what developers are saying about it on HackerNews and how quickly it's gaining traction on the front page?”
Framework adoption health check
“I'm evaluating whether to adopt SvelteKit for our next project — what does developer sentiment look like on HackerNews for SvelteKit right now, and is it gaining or losing momentum?”

Endpoint
GEThttps://cve-intel.agentdiet.dev/v1/hackernews-velocity-radar?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time, developer-community-specific sentiment rather than general social media sentiment — it is purpose-built for HackerNews, making it ideal for gauging how technical audiences (developers, founders, investors) perceive a technology, startup, or AI product. Prefer this over general Twitter/Reddit sentiment tools when the target audience is specifically the developer and hacker community.
Side effects
- Missing or empty 'query' parameter returns a validation error
- HackerNews API unavailability causes upstream timeout or degraded results
- Very niche or misspelled keywords return no matching discussions
- Payment failure (HTTP 402) if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.01 call
- Rate limiting if query volume is too high in a short period
